Wang Yi-Ling directs a film that starts as a lesbian youth drama, then switches to a road movie, then to an erotic one, before it becomes a crime one, with the transition between the genres being quite smooth, in a testament to both her direction and the excellent editing by her and Chang Ya Ting. The pace is also quite well implemented, with the speed picking up according to the narrative, and the two running scenes setting the tempo nicely. Chen Ko-chin's cinematography is one of the best assets of the short, with him presenting the various settings (club, the street, the hotel room, the convenience store) in the most impressive fashion, benefitting the most by the coloring and the lighting in order to show a series of truly appealing images.
